How Far Does The Whole Universe Go?

[bigboab]

Abu just dont think about it. The human mind cannot understand infinity. Go and watch a movie, then come out and get a drink and a take away. Leave all that rubbish to people who think they know.

Sound advice BB

Ah but it is fun to try


This stuff used to blow my mind when i was ten, it still does today, but you've just got to accept that the human brain is limited in what it can calculate or perceive

Doesnt stop it being an incredible organ though

Which universe are we talking about here and exactly how many dimensions do you feel we should be using.

If you are sticking to 3 or 4 then the question is pretty much pointless.

Although I admit that there may be more than 4 dimensions, since our senses can only detect 4 it seems that exploring the possibilities using these 4 dimensions is very relevant.

Any other solutions are merely theoretical and would remain so.

Absolute, unadulterated drivel.

Which of your senses do you use to detect the 4 you accept as being more than "merely theoretical".

Your last is like saying discuss a cube, but only in 2 dimensions. That would be a square.

Personally, I can detect width, length height and time.

If you can detect more, please astound the scientific world with your achievements.
Otherwise stop talking such utter crap.

Which sense do you use to detect time, smartarse [/b][/quote]
I wouldn&#39;t know how to begin to describe it, but I can assure you I do.

What&#39;s the first of your extra dimensions? The bottom of a beer glass?

I&#39;ve done it JP? Called it field studies.

I&#39;ve also stopped a lecture because no one was grasping the concept. Started teaching a completely new subject. Not one of them bloody noticed.

You then sir are the marvel of nature, for you can detect time using one (or more)of your senses.

Here&#39;s the options

Taste It
Touch It
See It
Smell It
Hear It.

You don&#39;t have to give me a complex explanation, just pick one (or more).

What subject did you use to teach?

[Gemby!]

why does anyone even bother to try and discover how big the universe is - the fact is we may never know so why try &#33;?

or who cares - we aint gonna go there &#33;
